  • Oura Ring review: a good complement to the Apple Watch

    How long does this take to change from a nearly dead battery?  The web site says 20-80 minutes.  I'm guessing the 80 minutes is "from dead", but it doesn't say explicitly.

    I also wonder about battery lifetime; is there any long term data available?
    I preordered the Oura ring when it was first announced a few years back and received one of the first rings in the US. My first ring stopped holding a charge after 18 months and replaced by Oura without an issue. My second ring is now about 6 months old and I can tell the battery is already starting to weaken. My wife’s ring is 25 months old and will not hold a charge for more than 1 day. Oura does not seem to be interested in fixing this one. 

    At this point, I still like the Oura ring and sleep insights that it provides me in addition to the Apple Watch, but I am now forced to view the Oura ring as a 2 year disposable item.
